PREMATURE WINTER—The Michigan City Enterprise says as old Indian hunter informs it that forty years ago they had another just such a premature season as this has been—the snow falling on the^ yet green leaves of October, and lasting with severe col(l, till the latter part November, when it came on warm and remained so until the time of making sugar in the spring.

THE TRIAL of Morgan did not commence yesterday, owing to the absence of Judge Patterson, who is at Indianapolis. Mr. Voorhees one of the counsel for th State, is also in that city. Judge P. expected to return at noon yesterday, but a dispatch was received in the morning stating that he could not return until tomorrow. The trial must therefore be "off" until the Judge returns and another day is fixed. Judge Crain proposed to preside until a jury could be empannelled [sic], and then await Judge Patterson's return, but the counsel for the defense would not agree to this. Sheriff Stewart then called the names of the special venire of jurymen and after recording their names for jury men's fees, they were discharged. This little arrangement piles a little over

NO SYMPATHY.—John Stevens, the murderer of Reeves, seems to have little or no sympathy from any source. Even his relatives stand aloof from him, offering no assistance or comfort. His own brother had to be hunted up in order to get him to testify in his defense.

He talks very calmly and appears about as usual, but the close observer can notice that he is not entirely at ease in view of the awful doom which hangs over him. He says he does not wish a commutation of sentence to imprisonment for life. If he cannot go clear, he desires to be hung. In that event he has requested Sheriff Stewart not to allow his relatives to have possession of his body. —————

MORGAN, the murderer of the German at Terre Haute, last February, has his trial to-day, it being the second one, as the Supreme Court of the State granted him a new hearing. Judge G. A. Chapman presides.—<Ind. Journal>.

Except that Morgan committed the murder in July last, and that Judge Chapman has nothing to do with his trial, the above item is tolerably correct. Judge Chapman is to officiate at the Erney trial, which is set for to-morrow.

TRIAL OF STEVENS—HE IS CONDEMNED TO SUFFER DEATH.—As noted in our last issue, toe [sic] evidence in this case was all in on Wednesday afternoon, and C. Thompson commenced the argument for the State. He concluded on Thursday morning, and was followed by Col. McLean. The speeches of both these gentlemen are spoken of as very able. The defense labored hard with a plea of insanity, but it did not seem to have much weight with the jury. After full instructions by the Court the jury retired, and in less than an hour returned a verdict, finding the accused guilty of murder in the first degree, and that he suffer

On the announcement of the verdict, the prisoner was closely observed, but not the slightest emotion or change was manifested. He sat erect and unmoved, with head thrown back, apparently the most indifferent and careless spectator in the

court room. We learn that the jury, on first retiring, stood eleven for inflicting the death penalty, and one for sending him to the peni-

tentiary for life. ————— SNEAK THIEVES are making themselves rather too familiar with the property of others, and we advise all housekeepers to keep their doors constantly locked and nothing of any value outside doors. On Tuesday evening the Rev. Dr. Jewett left his horse and carriage under the shed of a friend near the Congregational Church,

while he was in attendance upon a meeting in the city, carefully covered him with a rubber blanket and securely fastened the gates of the yard. At 10 o'clock he went for his carriage, when he found that some miserable vagrant had stolen the blanket from off his horse, the whip and rubber blanket from the carriage, and had even borrowed indefinitely the preparation that the Kev. Doctor had secured for the morrow's breakfast.

A human being that would steal from a clergyman is not even fit for the society of the denzens [sic] of a State Prison. There should be a special punishment for such miscreants, only equal to their meanness. —————

The testimony, in brief, was as follows: IAVID HUSTON —I Saw Stevens on the 4th of April, both before and after the shooting. Fifteen minutes before the shooting, Stevens asked me whether Reeves had made arrangements to settle his board told him no Stevens said he would. I met Steven? at the gate and he said, I have pluggedthe son of a b—h." In jail he contended that he had done God a service in shooting him.

Crogs-examined.—Stevens said he had done right in taking that which he could not give. I saw Stevens wave his handkerchief on coming ont^of^mjf^itchen

done nothing in particular, but seemed to be restless, and could talk of nothing particularly for any length of time he remained until after 2 o'clock in the morning was afraid to have him stay from what I saw and heard, ajid from his manner, I thought the man crazy that night.

Cross-examined,—Can not recollect what he said in particular he would talk a little, and then would change his seat and turn around. I understand by insanity that a man is not right in his mind, and that he should be shut up in a mad-house.

Re-direct.—I am not related to Stevens. EDWARD STEVENS—I am a brother of the defendant. He is 25 or 26 years old. My father had eleven children. I have lived here 12 or 13 years, Stevens boarded at my house a short time. He did several foolish things. He wanted to go to Illinois and make a larger amount of money without capital he rented some land of Rogers and wanted to raise onions, and wanted to buy a farm. He said his friends, the world and the church were down on him, and he did not care if he died. I saw him an hour or so after the deed, and he appeared very cool. At one time he said I vras down on him, and he would go and lay in the streets. My sister was sent to the lunatic asylum she stayed there three or four months. Uncle James was insane for a time. He was troubled about some lady to whom he was engaged. Could not marry her for want of money. He served in the 11th Indiana under Jabez Smith. I thought he he was crazy.

Cross-examined—I did not know 01 my uncle's lunacy. Hesent father some money and it was not paid back. He gave a note to Rogers for rent.

JABEZ SMITH.—I became acquainted with the defendant in the lltli Indiana regiment in 1861-'62. I saw him daily. Stevens served as Sergeant in my companv. He acted as a soldier at times, and at others would act reckless. He came to me afterwards and wanted to be reduced to the ranks. lie was reduced and lie then came and wanted to know why it had been done. He would sometimes refuse to go on duty, and I made up my mind that his brain was affectcd. I saw him on Friday or Sat 111 day before the shooting. He walked into the shop and set on the bench and began tellirg me of the difficulty with Reeves. Stevens had agreed to work with Reeves and Reeves would not pay as per contract, and they took the case to the Church, but he said he thought the Church was all down on him. Stevens said Reeves would have to do what was right or he (1 be d-—d if he did not make him. I thought -he acted like he was crazy. Reeves and Stevens were in the same company in the army, and boili were good friends-so far as I kiiow. Stevtns worked for Reeves somethree or four weeks, or longer. I saw Stevens after the shooting in Bairds office. He said he had not got into any very bad scrape. He said the deed had to be done and he might as well do it as any one.

Cross-examined—I punished him for disobedience. I consider a man with a wavering mind insane. I consider a man insane who says he was tried by the church and they were all against him. They thought more of Reeves than they did of him, and he would be d—d if some one should not make it right.

"HEMEMBER THE POOR!"—This, injunction cannot be too often repeated and we again write it for the purpose of re- ternoon of the shooting. minding our readers that on Thursday appearance. JIE gave a evening of this week, the Ladies Aid

It may be proper to add tli'at of the munificent endowment made by Mr. Rose, very little available funds have as yet come into the treasury of the society, and the ladies are thus in about the same condition as last year, while the calls of the suffering are far more numerous and urgent. We shall continue te agitate this matter. In the meaniime consider what you will do to aid the worthy cause.

The Independent Singing Club, composed of the very best and tlie leading musical talent of the city, and which is now permanently organized, having rooms in Beach's Block, proposes to give two concerts at Dowling Hall, on Friday and Saturday evenings, the 3d and 4th of December, for the benefit of the poor the proceeds to be placed in the hands of the Ladies' Aid Society. On these evenings the beautiful Canta'a of the Haymakers will be produced.

He was afraid of prejudice. He did not want anv witnesses. He said lie wanted no one to put in a plea of insanity for him, for if that acquitted him he never could look a man in the face. In the consultation room he seemed to be greatly excited and everv nerve strung up to its highest pich. 1 thought there was sometiling wrong in his mind.

Crow-cxaviincd—lie thought he had cause for doing it. He seemed to be nerved up and very cool, but it was very much under his control.

JOHN A. BRYAN—I know the defendant. I served in the army with the defendant. At times he would fly off, and then act well. He would refuse to go on dntv when ordered sometimes. I attributed his acts to recklessness and carelessness more than anything else.

Cross-examined—Disobedience was common in the army. He acted stubborn. Some would take punishment more coolly than others. I would not undertake to decide that he was insane,

He expected to make from two to foifr thousand dollars on onion lands he was going to make a fortune from wheat lands in Illinois his manner was serious he thought his family and all of his friends were down on him. His sister was in the lunatic asylum six months. I know that he was engaged to some girl, and that the engagement was broken off. After that he acted worse than ever he said but little in my presence about it I saw the defendant on the Wednesday be•ed wild hie

Crm Examined.—Not of sound mind means a snspension of the faculties oft Fie mind. I can tell insanity merely from the acts of the party.

IIAKAY NORTON.—I saw Stevens the night before the killing at Mrs. Cooper's When he asked me about the revolver I thought he acted strange. He talked in a manner that I had never heard before, lie said it would stand him in hand to have a revolver. He would talk about something a moment and then turn to something els'e, and lie seemed uneasy. I thought lie wanted to kill him-elf.

DR. BARBRE—I have been a practicing phvsician for 20 years—have graduated fdur tunas. A hypothetical case was put, containing things not in the evidence, and he answered that in such a case he would consider the person insane.

Cross-Examined—1 have read authority on insanity, and I basfe my opinion on the absence of a motive* .—

REBUTTING TESTIMONY.'1

MILTOX ROGERS.—Stevens rented about 7 or 8 acres of ground from me some time two vears ago. He was to pay me $90 on the first of March following. He came to me shortly after the 1st of March and demanded the note, and I did not wish to give It to him. He got hold of the note and I wished him to return it to me when he cursed me. When he went to go I asked him for the note and he run his hand back of hi- as though for a pistol. The rent o'

DR. READ.—I am a practicing physician am not acquainted with the defendant.

The hypothetical case was put as before, and the witness answered: It looks very much like the acts of an insane man.

Cross-Examined,—Mv opinion on that case is based on the absence of a motive. DANIET. MILLER.—I saw Stevens the dav before the shooting and on Saturday. I observed nothing unusual in his conduct.

RECOVERED.—The silver pitcher stolen from the residence of Dr. Peyton, on Monday night, was recovered on Wednesday. On Tuesday a woman took it to Forster & Son's second hand store where she offered it for sale for two dollars. She said she had a couple of silver goblets at home which she would sell. Suspecting something wrong they took the pitcher and paid her the two dollars, she promising to bring in the goblets.— The next morning mention of the theft was seen in our paper, and it was the intention to arrest her when she came in with the goblets, but she has not yet made her appearance, nor have the police been able to find her. =====

How TRUE and how strange that people .illouId seek relief in the hieroglifics of a doctor's prescription when they can buy as good, and nine times out of ten, abetter remedy than most doctors give, for the insignificant sum of 25cts.

Tlie resumption of spccic payment has nothing to do with Boots and Shoes. The influence of Boots upon the mind is very different from that of any other gar ment. A man may have a shocking bad hat, but he forgets it his coat may be threadbare, but his mind is not directed toward it but we defy a man to stand Upright in a pair of boots with worn-down heels, and wc believe it is just as difficult to feel upright in them. A sense of mean ncss possesses him lie feels* that everybody is noticing them. He cannot look people straight in the facc and feel upon the square with them. He feels the weak ness of his foundation, and he mistrusts the character of the superstructure that they support, however, irn posing in other respect. A man shabby in the Roots sometimes flatters himself that he carries off attention from them by the use of a splendid necktic but this is a delusion and a snare. The Boots are the key ofthe position, and we feel sure that no man ought to undertake any serious matter, unless he stands ijp in a good, stout pair of Boots.'

The same remarks hold good toward Ladies' and Children's Understandings, and the proper place to obtain a fine pair of Boots or Shoes, is at N. Andrews, No. 141 Main street, between 5th and 6th streets, where is the largest and best stock of Men's, Boys' and Youths' Boots and Shoes and Ladies wear to be found in the city. i,H .'jftNovl3-dlwwlm.
